Just last week we had the privilege of capturing a Family Portrait Mini Session of the Flints-! Jenny happened to go through preschool, elementary school, and high school with daughter Christine (who is a year younger) and Christine reached out to us to capture a portrait session of she and her parents just prior to their career move to Europe!
Christine's parents are University of Notre Dame professors and headed off to London just last week to continue working for Notre Dame abroad! They'd been to the London residence prior so they were excited and ready to go, but Christine knew that she'd be missing their presence in their hometown and felt that the start of their two year stint in London should be commemorated with an ever rare formal Family Portrait Session!
As avid learners ourselves we love those in higher education (learning and teaching are of the highest, most noble pursuits in the entire world) and were very inspired to hear that these two are both university professors and are adventuresome enough to move abroad for years at a time- and for their career at that!
In an awesome turn of events, Christine is also going to start working with Notre Dame in her career as well! She just landed a job as the Notre Dame catering sales manager with the Navarre group here in South Bend, so it turns out that their entire family will be working with the university!
A mere day and a half after we captured their family portraits, Christine helped her parents to the airport and they arrived in London safely last Thursday! It sounds like they're doing well and Christine is adjusting, so we wish them all the best! Again, thank you so much Flint family for having us capture your portraits and we can't wait to see which are your favorites!
We're still working through edits on wedding photos from two more weddings currently, but have gotten to send out a lot of awesome photo products to our amazing clients lately (a few awesome couples in particular!), so we're making our way through the thousands upon thousands of photos to edit and print as well as products to design! We're starting to get more wedding schedules in for the upcoming weddings for the end of this summer and for the upcoming fall weddings as well, so we're also getting excited to tackle those right when we finish up our clients' photos from this past month! 2018 is also filling up with wedding bookings, but we're excited to meet up with more couples in the next couple months for some of the spaces we still have available for next summer/ fall! We're so ready for our spring wedding couples as well! There are so many fantastic outdoor weddings and Basilica weddings coming up (as well as neat warehouse style weddings) from Western Michigan to Indianapolis to Chicago to random locations throughout Indiana to our South Bend area-! Ahh! We're so excited about the current and future amazing people that we get to work with! We even noticed that all of the couples have been particularly amazing people with fantastic personalities and careers, so that's just the icing on the top. Yeah... we're biased, but we like to think that we have the best couples and families in the world-!!
